I don't see how this could be related. The error is mentioning entirely
different node - mmsys. No driver binds to 10006000.syscon, except the
MFD syscon of course, so my change should have zero effect on drivers.

The mtk-pm-domains (so child of patch affected in 3/4) only takes regmap
from the parent, so the cells again are not related.

Just to be sure: you are testing mainline or next, without any other
patches on top except mine?
